Terrible

I've lost all my grandparents. When my nanna died it was a slow  burner. Didn't quite sink in at first then a few weeks later became super sad.

Condolences, MBM.

Olives on pizza- why?
Seems a sure way to get people to swallow the seed

Because it's amazing. Also, don't eat pizzas in places where they haven't removed the seeds prior to serving.

I'm not sure that the majority of Brits would be bothered if you said the Falklands belonged to Argentina.

Maybe it was meant to be: how to look foolish in another country.

But it turned out to be:  how to look foolish on reddit

Belgium doesn't exist?
And don't get Spain. They are Latin

Yeah, a pretty weak piece; usually the maps Zanza posts make for an interesting talking point.

What would be a better sentence to annoy the English?

The USTA has apologized to Germany for performing the antiquated first verse of that country's national anthem—the "Deutschland, Deutschland Über Alles" one, last used by the Nazis—before yesterday's Fed Cup match between German Andrea Petkovic and American Alison Riske.

The United States Tennis Association knows better than that.  It's not like they've never dealt with a German team before.  Petkovic should've walked then and there.

Can't wait to see the USTA play "Beans and Cornbread" for the Williams sisters at the US Open.
